Bell tent
Liked We stayed in the bell tent. The owners were lovely and let us on even though we had arrived a bit early. Honesty shop was a nice touch although we didnt need it, except when the kids realised there where ice creams :) facilities where kept nice a clean. The kids loved going down to the lake and having a paddle.

Overall a lovely place to camp and we had a nice time.
Powered grass travel trailer campsite
Liked Beautiful campsite and very well maintained. We loved the honesty shop and the location which was close to hay on wye as we went to the festival. It was idyllic but got a bit busy over the weekend which was probably due to school hols and it being bank holiday. Staff were very attentive and asked often how things were, they obviously take great pride in the site.
Disliked No wifi or tv signal but we managed to get around that.

Would definitely come back again.
